The Sacramento Zoo--E Feature: Camouflage: Mimicry - English
URL: http://www.saczoo.com/3_kids/20_camouflage/camouflage_mimicry.htm

Sometimes the best camouflage actually attracts attention to an animal—bold colors, patterns or shapes that are like neon warning signals to potential predators. Sometimes these markings really do mean danger, but often the colorful critters are just bluffing.

Animal behaviour: Benefits of female mimicry in snakes - English
URL: http://www.nature.com/cgi-taf/DynaPage.taf?file=/nature/journal/v414/n6861/abs/4

Males of several animal species mimic females either in appearance or in the chemical cues they release, and this mimicry has generally been interpreted in terms of alternative mating strategies –– for example, a male that mimics a female may obtain stolen inseminations or avoid aggression from larger rivals. Our studies of snakes suggest a different explanation, which relies on natural selection rather than sexual selection.

Insect Camouflage and Mimicry - English
URL: http://www.thewildones.org/Animals/camo.html

Camouflage and mimicry are adaptations some animals use as protection from predators. An animal that uses camouflage looks like things in its environment. It might look like a leaf, a twig, or a rock. Animals that use mimicry use colors and markings to look like another animal.

The three frogs are all putative members of a single species, Dendrobates imitator. Each of these different morphs is sympatric with a different species in a different geographical region.
